This bounty of SIX cents. for rabbit
scalps. would exhaust the revenue of
Esmeralda ConnM in short time, as
we have plentX. oGmdians who would
go immediately into the. business of
hunting. and, trapping. II might be
good for AGRICULTURAL counties, but for
mining counties, such as this, the law
would simply be burden imposed on
the taxpayers, for the benefit of In
dians. The advantages to be derived
are not commensurate with the cost,
and mining state cannot afford to
load It's statute books with laws which
though needful and proper in other
states, where the industries and interests
are different, are Of such paratlvely
slight value In any but an agricultural
community. Rabbits can travel a long
distance without canteen, and unless
there can be devised some method of
determining their actual residence,
mining counties would in majority
ofeases be paying for the protection of
the property of their ranching neigh
bors. The better plan Is to permit in
diyidual energy 10 protect property
endangered by the little animals; there
is not enough to be gained by their
absolute determination to justify the
expense entailed by bounty on
scalps.

day the Court rendered two decisions.
Justices Belknap and Leonard viewed
the matter from 4 Legis lative stand
point, being of opinion that the Legis-
lature intended that no salary should
be segregated
Judge Hawley coneurred with them
but by different process of reason
ing He said it was purely constitu-
tional question. The constitution pro.
hibited the Board of Examiners from
interfering in any manner with specif-
ic salary. The salary Of the Lieuten-
ant Governor as ex.otllcio State Libra
rian was specific, and therefore could
neither be segregated nor diverted. 1t
was intended for him alone. The mat.
ter must now be adiudicated by the

The Supreme Court OF the United
States differs from all other supreme
courts in the practice that here, each
Judge goes over each case as though
no one else was to look in it. They
meet thus in discussion room where
each judge stands on the same level in
discussion of the case. After they
have agreed, or nearly agreed, one of
the number is appointed to write out
the decision. When this is ready, it
is submitted and then comes general
and merciless criticism from all sides.

SENATOR STEW Al.


The election of United States Sen.
ator by the Legislature was made II
special order of business for 3 Z. Nj
yesterday. When the two houses met
in jaint session Mr.. Stewart received
the Republican vote and was declared
United States Senator from the State
of Nevada. He is now in position TO
verify the predictions made for him
by his friends, and before long even
his most violent enemies will concede
the wisdom Of the choice of the Legis-
lature, 1t will be his pride 10 do
something for his State. He will
show that he is Il living, active states
man and not n mere political or tinan-
cial lay-fgure, and his presence on
the floor of the United STATES Senate
will'show the East that Nevada has
men of ability amply equipped by ex-
perience, and learning, and well
qualified to stand In the front line
with the great leaders in National leg
islation.
All the Anti-railroad clap trap and
humbug have been brushed aside by
facts and figures, and the discrimi-
mating people have chosen man who
will think aud get for them, and who
will perform enough in one session to
Justify his selection.

Among the bills which the Legisla
ture is considering are some which
are of general interest. One, providing
for what is known as the Nebraska
plan of selecting United States Sen
ator, IS to the effect that at the cleo
tion prior TO the expiration OF the
term of United States Senator, the
beople shall designate on their ballots
their choice for that Office. 1t does
not elect the Senator, simply indi-
Gates the choieo of majority, and
leaves the Legislature. discretion IN
the matter. As no, harm can be done
and.as 1t might result favorably, there
IS no reason why this bill should not
become law,
There is n bill repeating what Is
known as the AntiTreat law, which
should be passed. Nevada is too
small State to be able to carry mop
erative laws on her s'atute books.
A bill to provide for the payment of
Jurors Is another which should and
probably will become law. Two
years of the present jury fee law has
satisfied the people that stinginess is
not always economy.
The question of irrigation is occu-
plying considerable attention and a
committee viii, be appointed which
will receive Information from all
available sources. This county is not,
to a great extent, directly interested in
irrigation, nevertheless the welfare
of other portions of the State Is SO in
timately coaaecpd with ours that
Esmernlda will assist in prom ting
any rational scheme for increasing
the water supply.
"A bill to provide for the election of
but three District Attorneys is not
meeting with general approval 1t is
a companion to the District Judge
law, which will probably be repealed
and. while apparently aimed in the
direction of economy, will in the end
prove to be an extravaganza. Acoor-
ding. to the figures of the friends of
the bill, Esmeralda County would save
$500 year In salary, Now this
would be very well but it must be re-
membered that travelling expenses
will be allowed and the amount of this
saving would be reduced. We would
have no District Attorney except at
rare Intervals. criminals would escape
because of absence, from the hearing,
of a representative If the State; and
generally the Inconvenience would
greatly over-b balance the comparatively
small saving, The last section Of this
bill, however, would be good law
and shonld be passed as separate
bill. II reads as follows:
Sec ID. No District Attorney, or
partner thereof, shall appear as attpr-
ney, or directly or indirectly aid,
counsel or assist the defense in any
criminal action begun or prosecuted
dnring bis term, nor in any civil
action begun or pro secuted during his
term, in behalf Of any person, SUNG
or sued, by the State or any county
